Best Raspberry Jam For Breakfast in Post Falls Idaho

Old European Raspberry Jam & Breakfast

The Samuel Parker family, descendants of John Knox, the Presbyterian minister of Wales, immigrated to America in the early 1800's. Initially, they found occupation in Iowa. By the mid-1800's, his son Henry Parker wished for more of the American dream of owning property, and the opportunity to carve a life out of the land.

Henry packed up his wife and children, Neil, Henry Samuel, Ida, Vera, and Frances, in a covered wagon. This family established one of the early homesteads in the Flathead Valley. They began in a one-room cabin, Indian raided their outdoor ice chest, yet the family maintained complete self-sufficiency. The children became quite progressive, and were among the first in the Valley to own a model T, generate electricity, and have a telephone.

How does this relate to raspberry jam?

The Parkers brought with them raspberry bush starts. Aunt Ida and Aunt Vera ( Frances, who Francie was named after, died of illness in harsh conditions), kept the raspberry patch alive all those years until they were turned over to the grandchildren, Francie's mom and dad and great-grandchildren. From them we learned all about gardening, canning, cooking and preserving.

Today as their descendants, we can do no less than to serve homemade raspberry jam, made in-house from real berries. Thank-you Aunt Ida and Vera and Grandpa Sam, and Uncle Neil for your hard work and the respect you passed on for God, family, and country.

What Our Customers Say!

Food was outstanding. Everything is made from scratch and the orange juice is fresh squeezed. Their coffee selection is delicious and you can even get it with a French press. Menu and drink selection is very large and so are portions so bring a friend to share, lol. Wait staff is courteous and friendly.

Only thing, was that the orange juice was wayyy over priced for the quality. It is fresh squeezed but so sour.

What a wonderful time we had visiting this great restaurant. Sarah, our waitress was very helpful and friendly. The food was outstanding. I’d recommend the Greek chicken sandwich for lunch. Excellent!

I always eat here when passing through. Great food that you can't get anywhere else in the area. Swedish crepes, abelskivers, German potato pancakes, buckwheat pancakes, plus a lot more. It's always packed when I get there but I've never waited longer than 15 minutes to get a table. There's also a lot of parking.
